<h2>Mishka's speed = 14 km/hr</h2><h2>Current speed = 2 km/hr</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the speed of rowing be r and speed of current be c.

If he rows with the current, Mishka rows 48 km in 3 hours.

        Relative speed = r + c

        Distance = 48 km

        Time = 3 hours

        48 = 3 x ( r+c)

        r + c = 16 ---------------------------eqn 1

If he rows against the current, it takes 4 hours to travel the same distance.

        Relative speed = r - c

        Distance = 48 km

        Time = 4 hours

        48 = 4 x ( r - c)

        r - c = 12 ---------------------------eqn 2

eqn 1 + eqn 2

        2r = 28

          r = 14 km/hr

Substituting in eqn 1

         14 + c = 16

                c = 2 km/hr

Mishka's speed = 14 km/hr

Current speed = 2 km/hr

Ive never seen a question lie this before
Since the first figure is a square I guess it stand for x^2
then we have -2x + 3x   = x ( the 2 stets of rectangles)
and finally -3 + 1 = - 2
So i am presuming its x^2 + x - 2

S2.256 T2.22 U2.099 V2.71
77julia77 [94]

Answer:

D) V, S, T, U

Step-by-step explanation:

Note that the question is asking for the order from greatest to least.  In the case of decimals, I find it easier to compare by placing them in a line going down and filling in zeros where needed to make them the same place values:  

2.256 - S

2.220 - T

2.099 - U

2.710 - V

Since they all have the same first digit, I will look at the next digit following the decimal.  '7' is the greatest, then '25', then '22' then '09':

D) V, S, T, U
